AC GTE / GT2 @ Silverstone GP - Wednesday 13th May 2020

[Medilloni]

Please add me as a reserve. 911.
Thx

You're in as reserve Pat
Sorry I can't give a choice of car for reserves, the choice will be the car of whoever doesn't turn up.

I'll take Porsche too. It sucks that I don't have time to practice for these wednesday races.. Whole new track (which seemed pretty difficult) and whole new car isn't the best combination But let's see how it goes

You're in with the Porsche Miika, thanks for letting me know

If it's any help, I tried the Porsche with stock setup and in 3 laps it was within .5sec of my best with the BMW that I have setups for.

Re the track, corner by corner guide here...hope it helps...

I actually set a reasonable (for me) time in the server last night, but it involved a lot of sliding. If i drive it like that tonight, the tyres should be good for about 3 laps. Still, nothing ventured and all that...........

 

[Axel Moebius]

@joeymac Looks like we've picked the wrong car for tonight! Guess we will have our own race. May the best Ferrari win!

Yeah, it looks that way. I don't mind who I'm racing, I just hope I can keep up!

Probably not as much as @GeekyDeaks in the Corvette

I tinkered with setup a few times last night and couldn't match your time in the Ferrari Han.

Is the BMW a dud? Any setups appreciated.

Yeah, I probably should have done a bit of practice first . I just did a few laps and managed to keep it on the tarmac a couple of times, but boy do you have to be careful on the pedals... I'm missing the ABS and TC of the 911 from the last race!

I meant in terms of you being the only driver in the Corvette....

I don't think the Bimmer is a bad choice. Stefano was faster on the straights with it. And I saw you were on mediums so on softs you will be fine, George.

 

[GeekyDeaks]

Yeah, I now know why though!

 

[HF2000]

Yeah, I now know why though!

On the other hand, you will be the fastest Chevvy for sure tonight

BMW is fine (not quite as fast here as the Porsche, but only marginally), but needs a fairly stiff setup to get the car to be responsive enough to take some of the more flowing sections faster. My Porsche and BMW PBs with BoP applied are within 0.2s of each other, so the BoP seems to be doing its job

hey cant make the race Family Emergency sorry !!

 

[Chris Down]

Two very fun races. Thanks a lot @Medilloni for organising! I definitely put my vote in as this being a great Wednesday combo, loved every minute of it.

Race one was really just escaping from Henri and Aki, which I did. Not much to say there, but happy with the win.

Race two, me and @pattikins had some contact into T2. Pretty sure it's a racing incident, not much either of us could have done about it. It was definitely fun going through the pack though, great defending @Kek700, @640er and @Medilloni especially! Really had a tough time getting past.
